“After requesting to receive contacts in the unified communications as a service category from the ViB Community, I received an email about GoTo. The company’s GoTo Connect VoIP product was the perfect solution for us. We not only lowered our annual phone bill, but also gained many new communication features and much better customer service than from our former provider.”

Challenges faced
Berger faced the critical task of modernizing his company’s IT systems to enhance remote work effectiveness. Among the key areas requiring an upgrade were its outdated phone system.
The pandemic and subsequent shutdown had exacerbated phone call issues, with employees using personal phones for business calls, leading to complications in both personal and work lives.
He needed a solution quickly, but faced various challenges when he attempted to find the right solution vendor on his own, including:
- Lengthy and unsystematic online research process and among peers
- Unsatisfactory solutions that fell short his requirements
- Expensive options that exceeded the company’s budget
I searched on the internet and talked to my peers. Some good products came my way, but something was always off, for example, the price was too high or they lacked all the features we needed. I had to explore so many rabbit holes, but they all came up empty."
How the ViB Community helped
In early 2023, Berger attended a ViB-hosted webinar to stay updated on the IT industry. Impressed by the presentation and valuable insights, he joined the ViB Community to further discover potential solutions that could meet his needs.
Upon joining the ViB Community, he opted in to learn about vendors in areas relevant to his interests and the need to upgrade Fiduciary Outsourcing’s IT systems. Specifically, he requested to receive information from unified communications as a service. That’s how he found the right communications software provider, GoTo.

Berger said GoTo Connect has changed the game for Fiduciary Outsourcing’s team, who, since the pandemic, work from home three days a week.

- Access to voicemail transcripts
